I want to make sure that everyone is aware of this option. Nobody should miss this sentence.
This should be standard. Even with the form submission, I’d worry about it getting intercepted by hackers. AI, pandemics, and even global poverty have a significant geopolitical element, and even without that element the vested interests would still be very large.
Public submissions can also be very good, like in the AGI rhetoric contest from last month. For example, I’d like EY to stop using the specific phrase “dying with dignity” because it’s heavily associated with the assisted suicide activism, and many people will remember that those words were also used by Jim Jones, the leader of an SF-area communist cult, as he gave his final speech that manipulated 900 people into killing themselves. If EY unwittingly continues to use this super cursed phrase again, at some point between now and the end of this contest in a few months, then that would be bad, so I’d like him to stop now instead of waiting until after the entries are evaluated. That’s not even an entry in the contest, I’m getting zero net money from this, please just stop.
